Reference was recently made in a CRIMSON editorial to several relatively small features in Lowell House which give rise to the impression that the House is to be started off with a strong Anglophile bias. It was further cited that several tutors in the House by various of their semi-public remarks had materially aided in substantiating this impression.

Other tutors in the House have recently made known, however, that they are not only out of sympathy with this program but have objected rather strenuously to a number of the plans with which the CRIMSON took issue last Monday. In accordance with their wishes various changes have been made in the original proposal. Not only will both common rooms be freely open to both students and tutors, but, that peculiarly British institution the High Table is to be set but once a week at the time of the regular House Dinner. Even at this meal tutors will not be required to eat at this table nor will students be excluded from it.

Admittedly these are small matters and as was pointed out in the earlier editorial they are only cited to show which way the wind blows. By observing the same straws which but lately showed such a strong breeze setting in from the shores of Albion, it is now possible to report that storm warnings seem no longer necessary.

After all, what is most desirable in the House is that a proper balance of power be maintained between the two different factions. Nothing is more deadening than constant agreement, and opposition only ensures a thorough consideration of all proposals. Even the most rugged American individual could hardly desire a complete isolation from foreign culture, but he is in the habit of desiring adequate representation for his ideas. The recent developments in the administration of Lowell House seem to indicate that such representation is, in the case at least, assured.
